    Default Leslie Nielsen has died


    Veteran comic actor Leslie Nielsen, star of Airplane! and The Naked Gun, has died at the age of 84.

    He died in hospital in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he was being treated for pneumonia, his agent John S Kelly said.

    Canadian-born Nielsen started out as a serious actor but in 1980, his role as a hapless doctor in the disaster spoof film Airplane! made him a comic star.

    In all, he appeared in more than 100 films and had a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame.

    "With his friends and his wife by his side, he just fell asleep and passed away," his nephew Doug Nielsen told the AFP news agency.
    I loved Police Squad. Favourite moments anyone?
